Benefits of technology

[0021]The method of predicting and entering a character string and the electronic device in which the method is implemented according to the present invention are advantageous in that an intended character string can be entered easily and fast because the intended character string can be selected by entering only some letters of the character string.
[0022]Further, according to the present invention, even though a user does not correctly remember individual letters forming a character string, the corresponding character string can be entered. Accordingly, there are advantages in that a user's efforts to search for correct letters forming a character string while entering the character string can be reduced and so user convenience can be improved.
[0023]Further, according to the present invention, although a user uses function keys while minimizing the use of function keys other than character enter keys which are frequently used at normal times, the user can enter a character string using function keys relatively frequently used when writing a common document, such as the space bar, the enter key, and the shift key. Accordingly, there are advantages in that a user's fatigue and inconvenience resulting from the use of less experienced function keys can be solved and also the speed of entry of a character string can be increased.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, if a word is long, a user must inconveniently perform a lot of key entry in order to enter one word.
For example, in the case in which a user wants to enter the character string ‘communication’, but does not fully remember the consonants and the vowels of the character string ‘communication’ (e.g., in the case in which the user does not clearly know whether ‘u’ or ‘e’ follows ‘comm’), the user feels difficult to enter the character string ‘communication’, and there is a problem in that a task of entering the entire word is delay because one vowel is not known to the user.
In addition, a user's fatigue is increased because of the plurality of consecutive key entries.

Embodiment Construction

[0033]Hereinafter, a method of predicting and entering a character string and an electronic device in which the method is implemented according to the present invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034]FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method of predicting and entering a character string according to the present invention.

[0035]Referring to FIG. 1, in order to enter a character string composed of a combination of a first letter and a second letter, the first letter and the second letter are inputted to an entry device in order of arrangement of the first letter and the second letter belonging to the character string until each of the first letter and the second letter is represented in a display window once or more (S10).

[0036]Accordingly, assuming that a combination of the letters of the character string includes two first letters, one second letter, and one first letter immediately after the one second letter, both the first two first letters have...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of predicting and entering a character string and an electronic device in which the method is implemented. The method of predicting and entering a character string includes a step (S10) of entering a first letter and a second letter in an entry device in order of arrangement of the first letter and the second letter until each of the first letter and the second letter is displayed on a display window once or more; a step (S20) of entering a first first letter from among the first letters existing in the character string after the first letters and the second letters; a step (S30) of predicting a prediction character string group of 1 to N columns, including the three or more letters, as a candidate of the character string and displaying the predicted prediction character string group; a step (S40) of primarily selecting an intended character string from an N number of character strings in the prediction character string group; a step (S50) of sequentially entering subsequent first letters existing in the character string after the first first letter; a step (S60) of rearranging the prediction character string group in 1 to n columns by deleting character strings, not including the sequentially entered first letters, from the prediction character string group whenever the first letters are sequentially entered; and a step (S70) of secondarily selecting any one of the n number of character strings remaining in the prediction character string group.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a method of predicting and entering a character string and an electronic device in which the method is implemented, and more particularly, to a method of predicting and entering a character string and an electronic device in which the method is implemented, in which a prediction character string group of an intended character string is generated by entering some consonants or vowels included in the character string and the character string is easily and fast selected from the prediction character string group.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Lots of researches have been done to reduce a user's efforts to perform key entry in which all letters assigned to respective keys must be entered when the user enters a letter through the key entry and to improve the convenience of entry.[0003]As a result of the researches, there is a method of, when a user enters some letters of a word at the beginning, predicting the remaining letters. This method requ...
